I am from

Amanda Hillis[1]

Intro

I grew up here in Missouri however Missouri is not where i am from. I am originally from Phoenix,AZ we moved here in 1989,and I have been here ever since.

I attended High Scholl in a small town about 30 minuets away from here however, I did not finish high school. I dropped out 3 months before graduation. However, shortly after my second son was born I decided that I want not only more for my life, but, I want more for theirs so, in 2006 i received my GED. That was almost the scariest thing I had ever done. I have worked as a CNA for 10 years now and have enjoyed my work however, I dont want to lift the elderly for the rest of my life so, I have decided to go back to school to get my RN. That has always been my dream because I am all about helping people, it makes me smile to see them smile because for most of them the CNAs and nurses are their families,my residents have become a huge part of my life and my childrens life as well.

In 2010 I met my husband and we have been married for just over 1 year and he is getting ready to go off to basic training for the army, which makes me very proud.
I enjoy spending time with my children and my husband, swimming, reading books,going to the river,the park, just spending time together, that's the best part of my day.
